yea with all the hand sanding this took me like..10 hours to do. It takes God-like patience. No wonder it costs so much for this **** to be fixed.

yea tell me about it, and you cannot use a power sander bc then you dont match the curve correctly or you rip it out ( i had a friend that did that once) and then have to do more work but yeah ill get pics ASAP so you can see my final product
